Doors' Case Shut


Here's the deal: If you're a fan, you know that the Doors lead singer, Jim Morrison is in Rock & Roll Heaven along with his wife, Pamela Courson. In 2002 keyboardist Ray Manzarek and guitarist Robby Krieger decided to go on tour. Drummer John Densmore declined the invite. Manzarek & Krieger made a ton of money on the tour, calling themselves "The Doors." California courts say that was a bad idea. The California Supreme court doesn't want to hear the case. Up for grabs is more than $5 million. It looks like Densmore is going to share the loot with Morrison's parents and Courson's parents. This is a case where a good attorney in '02 would've helped.
